service the other day and they told me that they would not warranty their
inverter in any "off-grid" application. My inquiry was in the context of
putting them under the back generator with a isolation switch in a grid-tie with
back generator situation. Of course I push the question up past first tier
support to the supervisor.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Hi
Drake:<BR> I just spoke with Enphase customer service about
interconnecting the Enphase to a battery inverters back up load center, and they
will not void the warranty for this. They only void the warranty for
physically altering the inverters, like changing the connector types.
(OOPS, I am guilty of that one.)<BR>
